Discover the Benefits of Integrating EDI with your ERP

The benefits of using EDI and ERP software together are endless; as an ERP VAR consultant and solutions provider, we get a lot of questions about EDI and other solutions such as “why should I be using EDI alongside our ERP?”   Here is the short answer: you will recognize benefits which will streamline your fulfillment process, automate redundant tasks, reduce date entry errors, increase communication both inside and outside of the company, and so much more!  All while improving accuracy and meeting customer EDI requirements.  There is really no reason not to use these two applications in conjunction with each other.
